A few words from the international press:

JALT CALL Reviews (beginning with page 7 of the PDF document)

"What makes this site really excellent is the quality of the creative and dynamic learning experience... the videos have a kind of "English Speaking Theatre" approach which is whacky, spontaneous, and wonderfully authentic; I was astonished at how creative the programme is and the variety of language, topics, and interaction."

ESL About
"The Videos guide beginners, intermediates, and more advanced students in a functional and grammatical learning experience through London, New York, San Francisco, Dublin, Atlanta, and dozens of other towns and cities throughout the English-speaking world in both hemispheres, especially in the USA.

Kenneth Beare awards Real English a rare 5 stars in his brief review:
"Real English offers free online English videos to help you with your English learning. This ambitious project is excellent for classes and individuals with fast Internet connections. Requires RealPlayer and subscription (free) for a password to use the videos."

The Tefl Farm
"The video clips themselves encapsulate the feeling of this package. They're charming, funny and - I have to say it again - so Real. You never feel as though you're doing an English course with the Real English CDs; it's more like you've just met a lot of friendly people, all ready to help you practise and improve."

The University of California, Berkeley
"Who could imagine that the Chapter 1, Lesson 1 question, "How are you?" could become an interesting one for English learners? Real English has made it so."

The English Zone
"In many English-learning video programs, the speaking style is artificial, and the dialog comes across as overly contrived, but not in the Real English® video! The speakers come from all over the world, and they all have accents your students will encounter while interacting in the "real world" outside of the classroom. In Real English®, they actually speak just that - real English!"

The EFLWeb
"By using so many different types of people, a student will begin to appreciate that there are correct, yet different ways of answering the interviewer's questions. A problem with classroom based teaching is the absence of this type of variety. If an English student cannot understand the language outside the classroom because they have become so familiar with the accents of their own teacher, the course has failed. This series meets this requirement by bringing practice with real people to the classroom."
